FAQs

How should I clean my Paraboot Reims?

Wipe the leather with a damp cloth to remove dirt. Use a leather cleaner and conditioner to maintain the leather's quality. Clean the rubber sole with a brush and soapy water.

Are Paraboot Reims true to size?

It is recommended to refer to the size chart and, if possible, try the shoes on for the best fit, as sizing can vary slightly.

How often should I condition the leather?

Condition the leather every few months, or more often if the shoes are exposed to harsh conditions.

Can I wear the Reims in wet weather?

The Norwegian welt construction offers some water resistance, but it's best to avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain. Consider using a leather protector for added protection.

What is the lifespan of the rubber sole?

With regular wear, the rubber sole can last for several years. The durability depends on wear and tear, and the sole can be replaced by a cobbler when needed.

Where are Paraboot Reims loafers made?

The Paraboot Reims loafers are handcrafted in France.

What is Norwegian welt construction?

Norwegian welt construction is a durable method of attaching the upper to the sole, adding water resistance and longevity.

Troubleshooting

Loafers feel tight initially.

Allow for a break-in period. Wear the loafers for short periods at first, gradually increasing the wear time.

Leather shows signs of wear or scratches.

Use a leather conditioner or a specialized leather cream to help restore the leather.

Sole grip feels less effective.

Clean the sole with a brush and soapy water to remove any dirt or debris that may affect grip.
